Кроме того, есть бесплатное приложение. Новости структурированы, написаны в строгом информационном стиле. Для изучающих язык такая подача помогает понять суть события и без словаря, а также изучить массу полезных выражений. Минус — несколько сухой стиль изложения, деловая направленность. Часть контента они выкладывают на сайт, остальное доступно по подписке. Газета британская, но достаточно широко освещает международную тематику, есть специальный раздел о США. Статьи очень живые, интересные и тематики разнообразные — от высокого искусства до советов о личной жизни. Специально для любителей языков созданы разделы Languages и English and creative writing.
